A single reinforced beam of dimension 200 x 350 is reinforced with 3-25mm at the bottom. If the concrete has a compressive strength of 17 MPa and the steel has a yield strength of 415 MPa, determine if the beam can carry a uniform distributed load of 18 kN/m dead load. The beam has a length of 5m with 40mm concrete clear cover, 10mm enclosed stirrups, and Es = 200 GPa. Use LRFD in the analysis. What is the actual steel reinforcement ratio of the given beam.  What type of failure will occur? What is the value of the compression block? You will get two values, use the positive

Design criteria for structural loading

The different loads such as loads due to self-weight (dead load) and external loads such as live load, wind loads, seismic load, snow load, and other loads and load combinations that influence the design of a building are called structural loading. The nature of the applied load differs from changes in the location, design, and type of materials used. The design criteria require that structures must be designed and constructed to be able to withstand all load types that are expected to act upon the structure and render its usage for the designated purpose. The structural members such as beams, slabs, columns, and foundations help the structure to withstand the applied load. There are different institutes such as ASCE and ACI that provide building design codes to assure minimum safety requirements and quality of the structures.
